Woops. Here we are with two blank lines staring

  • Woops. Here we are with two blank lines staring at me and I have no ideas! Hmm. Let's do a story about a twopence. We can begin with that lady who sells birdseed for twopence a bag
  • and end with a brutal murder scene at the conclusion of a gripping tale of horror and the dark side of human nature. But that's a long way off yet, so we'll start with the birdseed
  • murders. The bird seed murders began when bodies drifting through the Thames were discovered to have large amounts of bird seed stuffed in the victim's ears. London police were
  • completely baffled. There were no leads, nothing connecting the victims except for the bird seed in their ears. Deaths only increased over time. The public nicknamed the killer
  • "Bad Seed" & went to bed at every night, scared as hell. The next victim was ol' Mrs. Farkus, an elderly widower who lived on Elm Street. Bad Seed got her, alright, & left a note:
  • "THE NeXT tiME We MEeT YOu'LL B DiscRET" Forensics puzzled over the note, the letters exclusively cut from Redbook and Ranger Rick. A clue!
  • The answer was in Good Housekeeping, a zine omitted from usage in the ransom note. Forensics spent the afternoon comparing tips for keeping a tidy crime scene. A breakthrough!
  • The newspapers were all yellowed and dated from my mum 's childhood. There were stories about food rationing, fuel rationing and more. The Kaiser was still alive. I was stunned.
  • Then I was kidnapped, misplaced, revived, then roofied but only for a cat commercial, luckily, then I was stunned again, kidnapped again because they remembered where they left me.
  • In the end the cat commercial was a great success and only featured mild arm nudity. And missing only one kidney I wandered aimlessly until I found my way home.
